Not that it's worth anything, but I agree with you 100%. There's been a lot of speculation since V met Qarr, but none of the recent dialogue resonates with the concept of doing the right thing for the wrong reasons as this one. Good call. How this leads to V achieving Ultimate Arcane Power is...

What exactly do we expect Qarr to do, assuming V accepts his offer? What makes anyone believe that Qarr could save V or defeat the dragon?

Could anyone help me find more information on the 'Zombie Plague' mentioned in the infected zombie template on page 217? It's says see below but I simply can't find the material. Thanks.

And on that note, I'm encountering a lot of resistance to the new rules. Anecdotal evidence, sure, but Wotc knows they pissed some people off. They probably didn't know how it would be until after all the decisions had been made, but they sure know it now. I think they're response to criticism...

After a rancid summer of trying to get a 4E campaign to work, I have successfully DM'ed a 3.5 campaign using, after character generation, Encyclopedia Magica vol.3 (because that's where the rods of wonder are). That's it. No Monster Manual, No Player's Handbook, No Dungeon Master's Guide. No...

I'm thinking this is the work a really slow news cycle or a well-placed nerd. Any speculation as to which?

Congratulations! You win the awesome prize (consisting of 100% awesome) of awesomeness by identifying the 64,000 dollar question. I only wish everyone could learn to read between the lines as you have today, sir. While omitting a mention of the print run for the last edition, as opposed to...

OH! Thanks!

Let me admit at this first: I illegally download electronic copies of D&D books I've already purchased. I have never had a problem getting a book I wanted other than time. Whether or not this will reflect poorly on WotC's sales is an open debate (I'm not switching to 4E, so I guess I won't be...

This sucks. After 8 years there's finally a policy that would allow for the production of new Planescape products. Only now the canon has been changed so much it can't replicate Planescape. Maybe they'll reintroduce Great Wheel cosmology for that campaign setting. :) Oh, and I think this...

I didn't think I'd participate in this thread for various reasons. Then I saw this... This smacks of low drama which, predictably, doesn't resemble real life in the slightest. Law Enforcement officers don't pass judgement on the accuse. A Judge or Jury of their peers do that, at least in the...

Why use feats when you can just take Rog5/Ass1 and get another die of sneak attack? Also, there's a problem with a duelist feat. Canny Defense works off of class level, which isn't possible to gain by level six. Either the feat changes or the class ability does. Also, keep in mind that these...

I have a spent few thousand dollars on DDM. I bought 1 Shadow Demon on ebay. I like Shadow Demons. I will likely buy another single or two, but no packs. Especially since I'm not switching to 4E or play DDM 2.0. Despite those reasons, the core is that those minis are UGLY. Most of the are...

Bump for final results! Congrats, everyone!

I think that the idea of a company killing off a game is laughable when the people who play already possess the tools to keep it alive. In three years, I've never had to wait more than a week to reconstitute a group. People want to play D&D, so whatever Wotc wants to do is fine by me because...

I think it's a fair trade, even if it's only Leadership. One scaling feat for another. Anyway, I happen to think a Druid's animal companion is a very desirable class feature, so I might be biased, but I think it's a fair trade.

I have played with groups approaching this size (biggest was 9). It works if you adjust your perceptions of what makes a good D&D game. Throw out investigations, traps, shopping, and pretty much anything that divides the group. Run A LOT OF COMBAT. Run huge combats with like 50 kobolds and a...

modern day? Strength, as our exercise comes mostly from recreation rather than toil and is therefore not a great priority to most people.

I happen to think that 4E was brought in line with the minis game to help boost numbers on both sides. From what we've seen, there are an awful lot of movement and terrain effects. Also, the restructuring of poison and saving throws match up a lot more closely than they did before. In the end...
